At PQA, we understand that greenhouse plastic management does not end when plastic leaves the farm. That is where a process begins that must ensure proper and traceable handling and recovery. It all starts with the collection of used plastic by an authorized environmental waste manager, who is responsible for its collection, weighing, and documentation. The material is then transported to PQA’s facility, where its arrival is recorded and the sorting process begins. The plasti

While the name changes from Nevado Roses to NEOFARMS, what remains intact is the essence, “nearly three decades of commitment to people”.

Climate is harder to predict — so growers plan by

It all began in 2006 with a specific goal: to supply corrugated cardboard packaging to the family banana business that would eventually become Corporación Palmar. What started as a response to a concrete operational need became the foundation of Incarpalm, a company that, two decades later, has established itself as a leading name in Ecuador’s packaging industry and is increasingly expanding its reach into the floriculture sector. Its history cannot be separated from that of

Red does not need an introduction. Reinventing it is another story. For generations, it has been woven into the fabric of floriculture, carrying a significance that extends far beyond any single season or occasion. That familiarity, however, raises the bar for every new variety entering the segment, where reliability and differentiation can matter just as much as the color itself.
